Post Camber adjuster

I was on the Comptech website as I am interested in some sway bars for my TL. On the products listed available for the TL suspension was the camber adjuster. Does anyone know what this is and what it does. Does it offer any performance enhancements? I will apologize ahead of time as I am not very mechanically enclined. Thanks for any info.

No peformance gain. It will just ajust your camber. If your wheels are like this / \ after springs you could make them like this | | with the camber kit. That's all, just better tire life.

Don't buy the parts from Comptech directly. Get them right here or click on Comptech on the left of the screen. They're a little cheaper and the customer support is the best in the business!

Good luck.

In short, you won't need camber adjuster (alignment) kit unless you lowered your car + the cambers are too negative to adjust to within factory specs.


When you lower your car, you will have negative camber. This will cause your tires to wear out unevenly by wearing out the inner side more. Consider the alignment kit only if regular wheel alignment can not fix the negative camber.
